A year in Review 2011

January

We started the year off with a snow storm.

We had dome ice fishing days on the water where Stacie and Matthew came down for some fun.

Gram and Gramp even got out on the ice!

Getting ready before a long ride!

Ryan and I bought our first house!

Right at the end of January

We had great company the day we bought the house
February

We left our mothers to paint while we went to work. So therefore we got the word "camoland" painted on our wall.

Autumn even helped paint.

A trip up North!!

For some more snowmobiling.

Valentines day!!!!

We ordered out and picked it up and took Valentines dinner to our new house to enjoy Valentines day working on our new house.

We went and picked up all the flooring.

Autumn came to the new house to spend some time with us!
March

We celebrated Jason's birthday!

We did some finishing up at the house.

Gram went away on a sewing retreat and we put up all new shelves in her sewing room.

Piper found herself on the boat house roof.

We moved into the new house!

We had company!

Gram, mom, and I participated in the shop hop. Here are all 34 fat quarters that I got.
